Product Description
More than 350 delectable recipes and dozens of techniques for nutrition-conscious, full-flavor cooking.

This long-awaited collection of more than 350 recipes represents favorites from EatingWell: The Magazine of Food & Health, that have migrated to the top of an elite line of new and classic dishes now numbering well into the thousands.

These are exciting new recipes that EatingWell's own staff members take home at night alongside the time-tested winners that dedicated readers call and write to request over and over again. All are freshly updated, with improved nutritional analyses and an eye to today's fast-evolving nutritional guidelines.

Within these pages you'll find clear, simple and often very quick recipes. You'll also find a unique Healthy Weight Loss Index that identifies which recipes fit into particular diet guidelines, rating them on overall health (calories, carbohydrates, and fats), fiber content, and which recipes best address the needs of those on low-carbohydrate weight-loss plans. Losing weight no longer has to mean sacrificing great tastes and fine dining.

  • Good carbs--don't abandon the things your body needs and craves: whole grains, great-tasting vegetables and fruits
  • Good fats--enhance your recipes and your family's health with the right fats and oils, while lowering saturated-fat content
  • Great flavors--savor rich taste using trustworthy recipes and the secrets of award-winning cooks and the best tricks and techniques from EatingWell

Recipes include:

  • Chicken Sauté with Mango Sauce
  • Updated Mac & Cheese
  • Asian Stir-Fried Shrimp with Snow Peas
  • Grilled Pork Chops with Rhubarb Chutney

4 out of 5 stars Kitchen Essential   September 30, 2009
C. Stipe (Pine Mountain, GA USA)
Great recipes. Every Eating Well recipe I have tried so far has been great. This is a must-have book for any cookbook "collector."


5 out of 5 stars Easy to prepare, fantastic flavor, healthy but not over the top.   September 13, 2009

I bought this book about a year ago and I use it all the time. I am not the kind of person who cooks or eats "low-fat" meaning that I use butter sometimes, I use cheese and I like my food to be flavorful. I do, however, also like my food to be healthy in the sense that it provides me with plenty of vitamins, nutrients, fiber and heart-healhty fats. This book is exactly that. Firstly, I like the fact that they talk about "good and bad" carbs and "good" fats. They not only explain to you what this means and how to live by it but they include nutritional information for each and every recipe so that you can see how ingredients affect nutrition. It has taught me a lot and since buying this book I have been able to stem out further with my own ideas and recipes.

I also lived out of the country for awhile, and another thing I love about this book is that the ingredients are easy to find. I notice that many vegitarian or healhty food books include a number of hard (yet not impossible) ingredients that when living in the states is fine, but in foreign lands are often not feasible.

The book also features a few info pages that help you to understand general cooking methods. These include;6 smart snacks, stock essentials, essential grain-cooking guide, essential vegetable-roasting guide, essential greens-cooking guide,essential chicken saute, and a few on desserts.

Overall I truly feel that this is an essential cookbook for anyone who simply wants to eat healthy. There are plenty of vegitarian options and meat options throughout the book to keep both parties happy. If I had to say one negative on the book its that there are very few pictures, and I just love looking at delicious meals to inspire my cooking.



4 out of 5 stars Actually tastes like "food" !   September 10, 2009
Debra A. Henderson (Houston, TX)
Since my husband was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes I have been trying to find cookbooks that are carb friendly. This is one of the few that actually has carb friendly recipes and they actually taste like "food" -- not hospital-bland. While not all recipes are rated as carb friendly, it does list the total carb count so I am able to adjust the menu to include a recipe from this book. I have only started cooking with this book, but out of the half dozen or so recipes that I have tried I have been mostly pleased with the outcome.


5 out of 5 stars I love it   July 13, 2009

Its very good and very easy to cook. If you really care about your health then you already have this book or will have in couple days.
